I remember a video in the shitty/dangerous drivers thread where someone (on this board with a dashcam) had a near miss with some idiot in the middle lane going the wrong way. If their death served anything, I hope it serves to have the egghead ministers of transportation manage the traffic control. That bridge is a serious cluster fuck.

Rest in Peace to the two drivers.
The Lions Gate bridge was built in 1938. Yeah it's over capacity now, you want to pay for a replacement? Look at how many people bitch about tolling the port mann.

There's one way to significantly reduce the risk on that bridge, and that's to slow the fuck down while on it.
